Nursing Assistant Salary

I just happened to look at the nursing assistant salaries for Baltimore, Maryland and there is no way on God's gorgeous green earth that nursing assistants make that much money. That's insane. Where are they getting these salary totals from? I know one nursing assistant who has been at her job for over thirty years (and she's pretty pissed off about it) and she doesn't make that much money.
I don't make that much money.
I have a question. I walked off my job today can that go against my certification.

hi ...i recently moved to baltimore and i was wondering what a nursing assistant usually makes per hour here..i am from alabama and its about $8 and hour there...

The salaries that are listed are someones dream! In eastern NC Cna's are getting a disgusting $7.00 per hour!!! Ten years ago in Vermont I was earning $11.00 per hour with full benefits!!!

It all depends on your experience, some places in Baltimore,start at $10.00 or more an hour, depending on where you go, mostly just coming out of class is about $10.00.

What is going rate 4 myrtle beach,South Carolina.Also North Carolina. Took classes before just didnot get state cerficated.

NC wages are an insult, don't bother working as a CNA here! Plus they treat you like dogs. Seven years ago I was making over $11.00 per hour in
Vermont, this year when I looked into doing it again, the pay was $7.00 per hour, with experience!!! Forget it!!!

Thank you very much,I work as an asstaince at a store now, I love my job . Except I feel sometimes like it isnot worth it. Feels like I am not fast enough. I keep trying different ways 2 improve, THANK YOU SO MUCH

Hi. If you dont mind me asking, Where can i make $20 an hour as a CNA. I am getting my license by the end of the month and I would like to get paid that amount of money if I can? Thanks

I am a CNA in Baltimore MD...I make $14.45 w/ night diff on weekdays and $15.10 w/ night diff on weekends.....Now I am a Nurse Tech...a lot of pwople do not know the difference. That is not to insult anyone just an observation. I went to BCCC and went thru their multi skilled medical tech program which offered cna, venipuncture/ specimen collection (phlebotmy), medical terminology, ekg essentials, and medicine aide. So I am ceritified in all as well as national certification in phlebotomy. Now thru agencies I can make $17-$19 but that would be w/ out benefits. Because I need benefits I make the rate I said above and I get a raise every 2 yrs.

The pay is 10.00 in some nursing homes,and lower in some. the hospitals some go by how long you have been a cna/pct/cat 7.50-13.50per hr

Is a nursing assistant the same as a certified nursing assistant? What degrees do you need for eachA?

I don't know what figures you are looking at but I have been a nursing assistant in Maryland for a couple years now and I currently make $10/hr. But I know there can be a range between 8.00-15.00 here depending on if you go agency or not. In addition CNA and GNA make a difference here as well. You can make more if you have your GNA.

AND YES...If you walk off your job it can go against your certification.

i want to take my board exam for the c.n.a and i'm a little nervous. does anyone knows how to overcome this nervous action in me?

I dont believe so Im a CNA which mean I am certified. Im in California and took the class over and received a HHA and CNA certificate Im also CPR/FA certified I make $10.50 starting off full time. I did this in 95 in South Carolina when the pay was $7:50 its gone up some.

iv been a cna for 4 years .. my firstjob i stared out at 9.50 an hour now it 13 i know in the city hospitals like downtown dallas and fortworth they start out at 16 an hour

I left my job about two months as a retail managment. I tried to apply the job in kmart. I gave my resume to the human resource and I filled out the application through computer. They sent me to take the drug test. But somehow I didn't do go in the interview or I am Chinese , he doesn't like me. Of course, I didn't get the job.I am so frustrated and worried. I want to take a GNA certicate. Is it worth it and how is the market?
